I prayed by Ann Wood

I prayed for strength, and my life gave me difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for wisdom, and my life gave me problems to solve.
I prayed for wealth, and my life gave me brains and muscles to work with.
I prayed that I could fly, and my life gave me obstacles so that I could overcome them.
I prayed for love, and my life gave people I could help solve their problems.
I prayed for good, and my life gave me opportunities.
I didn't get any of what I was asking for, but I got everything I needed.
